Her mind was filled with the imposing manner with which he stepped out of the car.
He's definitely not an ordinary person; being able to drive military vehicles so freely suggests he's a relative of Marshal Li.
Suti just married well.
Seeing the two exchanging knowing glances, Suti quickly packed her things and left. She didn't have time to watch them play tricks on each other.
"Wife!" As soon as Suti reached the door, she saw a person standing there grinning.
“You’re here to pick me up…” Suti was so frightened that she wanted to go back.
"No, I came with Xiao Liu." Li Baichuan walked over and took the things from her hands. He knew she had the day off.
I came here specifically with Xiao Liu to pick up the person.
"Then let's go back." That's good!
As soon as Su Ti got into the car and turned around, he saw Meng Yixuan chasing after him excitedly.
"Never mind, let's go." Suti didn't want to deal with these hypocritical interpersonal relationships during this holiday.
She disliked Meng Yixuan even more than Zhu Qingling.
Li Baichuan understood; his wife didn't like this man. Meanwhile, Xiao Liu stepped on the gas, leaving Meng Yixuan, who was following behind, with a mouthful of exhaust fumes.
"..."
Meng Yixuan stomped her feet in anger, but when she turned around, her face was completely expressionless.
"Sutti probably didn't see me. I was planning to say hello to her, but now that I'm on holiday, I won't see her for ten days or half a month. I'm a little sad about it."
Meng Yixuan looked at the people from several departments who followed behind her and explained dejectedly.
"So what? Comrade Suti certainly didn't ignore you on purpose. The car is well-sealed, so she probably didn't hear you. You've probably never ridden in a car before."
“I’ve ridden in my uncle’s company car before. You have to shout really loudly for the people inside to hear you. The glass shell is so thick.”
A staff member from the Materials Department of the Reform Department, who was familiar with the people in their office, quickly came out to explain after hearing Meng Yixuan's words.
I don't know if he wanted to show off that he had ridden in a car before, or if he wanted to laugh at Meng Yixuan for being ignorant.
"Haha..." Zhu Qingling laughed when she saw Meng Yixuan's discomfiture. She realized that Meng Yixuan's purpose was the same as hers.
Her family must have told her that Suti's background was not simple, and wanted her to be more respectful of him. That's probably why she wanted to visit Suti's family.
Unexpectedly, Su Ti is as slippery as an eel, ignoring both good and bad words. I guess even if she saw Meng Yixuan just now, she wouldn't have paid any attention to her.
Zhu Qingling knew very well that Su Ti had been in their reform department for some time, and she still hadn't figured him out.
You might say she's hardworking and loves to show off, but if it's not her job, she won't do more than necessary.
You think she's just here to gain experience like the others? She's also the most diligent person in their department.
She spends all day flipping through those documents, and sometimes she consults people about this and that. If you didn't know better, you'd think she was some kind of high-ranking leader.
She had an air of being dedicated to the country and its people, and she spoke with impeccable tact.
So far, she hasn't met anyone who can get anything out of her, but despite this, everyone gets along very well with her.
This takes some skill. Zhu Qingling knew she couldn't be so calm and composed in the face of adversity.
She's figured it out. If she can climb up to him, great; if not, she doesn't need to force it, as it might be a losing proposition.
Meng Yixuan glared at these idiots, feeling that nothing she said would be appropriate, and finally stormed off without looking back.
——
"Honey, it's holiday time. What are your plans? Have you talked to your mother yet?" Li Baichuan has been busy these past few days.
He also took the time to go with his grandfather to buy a lot of gifts for visiting the family. Is there anything that is still lacking?
“You’ve bought quite a lot. If you’re missing anything, we can resell it over there. Many things in Shanghai are more exquisite than those in Beijing.”
Suti knew that her grandfather and the others had been preparing a lot of things these past few days, so she didn't stop them. If she said anything to the Li family, it would seem petty of her to say anything.
“That’s right. Once we get to Shanghai, we’ll take Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, and Mom out for a stroll.”
Li Baichuan had never been to Shanghai, and he was very curious about the exquisite Shanghai that his wife had described.
The two of them always have endless things to talk about whenever they get together. Not to mention their grandparents, even the family's nanny and guards are used to it.
Even though he's saying the most ordinary things, people can't help but smile.
After the holiday started, Su Ti spent his time either studying with Li Baichuan or watching him practice driving, which made Xiao Liu furious.
It's the end of the year, and everywhere is crowded. She doesn't need anything, so she doesn't want to squeeze into the department store or Friendship Store.
Her belly is getting bigger every day, probably because of twins; she feels it's significantly larger than average.
However, none of the men in her family noticed anything amiss. She planned to have a prenatal checkup when she went to Shanghai and then announce it all at once.
Suti wasn't raised well in her past life; her two children were born looking like cats. Now that she has the means, she pays great attention to nutrition and rest.
I spent a leisurely day lying at home, and before I knew it, it was New Year's Eve.
"Su girl, when are you planning to go to Shanghai?" It was New Year's Eve, and the whole family had taken a break and were sitting in the yard basking in the sun, a rare treat.
"Let's go back on the second day of the Lunar New Year." Su Ti thought of the custom of returning to her parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and she still wanted to go back early to spend time with her family.
"Alright, I'll have Xiao Liu get things ready." The old marshal had everything arranged.
Since we're going to talk about the two children's wedding, many of us can save that for the wedding day.
This frees up time, allowing everyone except for a few people who will be visiting on the first day of the Lunar New Year to postpone their visits.
"Grandpa, it's New Year's Eve today, shall I cook dinner?" She hadn't touched a pot since they came to Beijing.
She wanted to cook the reunion dinner herself on New Year's Eve.
"Alright, let them assist you." Marshal Li agreed with a smile, not taking it seriously.
Su Ti glanced at Li Baichuan, who was seemingly discussing something with his father, and went straight to the kitchen without saying hello.
Seeing the ingredients prepared by the family's housekeeper, Suti, adhering to the principle of not wasting anything with auspicious meaning, decided to cook six dishes.
"Comrade Su, how about we do it? You can just come over and stir-fry it a couple of times." None of the housekeepers dared to let Su Ti really do anything.
Everyone thought she was interested in the kitchen and wanted to show off during the New Year, but she's still pregnant.
The baby in her belly is the Li family's precious treasure; if it gets hurt, they're doomed.
"Don't worry, when I was sent to the countryside, I always cooked for myself at the educated youth settlement. I know some home-style dishes."
Suti noticed that they were all very nervous and knew what they were afraid of.
These people used to be strictly controlled by Grandma Kang, and they had no presence at all in the family.
I usually stay in the kitchen or indoors, and I dare not say a word more than necessary.
